I have no doubt that the democrips will try to play the 'well those records are kept by companies, the NSA is just filing a duplicate' argument. The problem with that reasoning is that the NSA has no one who can stop them or sue them out of existence, or oppose their use of data or manufactured data, unless the Congress does something NOW.

If Verizon used someone's metadata to harm that person, in the pre-Obama America a court could find Verizon in violation of privacy and an enormous punitive damages suit confirmed, putting the company into bankruptcy for criminal behavior.

Unless Congress finds what the NSA has done and the regime has exploited to be criminal behavior, it will become the established means of any future oppression by tyrannical regimes.
